Writing Riba Transactions

Question :

I am an accountant with a business company and this company is forced to take loans based on Riba from the bank. A copy of the loan contract comes to me to confirm the company's indebtedness in its books. Am I considered "a writer of Riba" and is it not permissible for me to work with this company? Meaning, am I considered a sinner by registering the contract without actually ratifying it? Please give us a beneficial answer and may Allâh reward you with good.

Answer:

It is not permissible to cooperate with the mentioned company in Riba transactions, because the Prophet cursed the one who devours (i.e., takes) Riba, the person who gives it, the person who writes it and its witnesses. Then, he said:
"They are (all) the same (i.e., in sin)."

This was recorded by Muslim. This is also due to Allâh's Statement:
"And do not cooperate in sin and transgression."
